The iKiss PMP, otherwise known as the RAmos T10, is one of those sensible-looking Chinese PMPs that make us proud to be covering them. It also makes us wish RAmos has sent us an official demo video. If take a look at the previous model, this PMP has awesome written all over it: 1080p HD video support and a ton of supported video files that’ll make iPod owners so jealous. The new RK2806chipset should make viewing these video files an even more pleasurable activity. The 4.3-inch screen supports 800 x 480 pixels. No price on stores yet.

It looks like the iAudio 9 has followed the E2 to JetMall. The COWON iAudio 9 is your basic PMP that would only have been able to compete with the iPod Nano for your attention if you were especially averse to camera functionality (hey, some people hate these cellphone and PMP cameras). For $169.99 you get 16GB of storage and 8GB will set you back $129. The iAudio 9 supports more video and music files than the Nano (if you’re partial to FLAC, this is your 2-inch PMP). It plays up to 7 hours of video on a full charge. On stock at this moment.

China giant Huawei announced the M750 touchscreen phone in the middle of the feverish month wherein we see everyone holding their breath for the new iPhone. The Huawei M750 is a full touchscreen phone with details too scarce to make much of. We still know little of the phone except that it’s a CDMA touchscreen phone (stylus input) from China with a built-in 1.3 MP camera. Price is $200 unlocked. Click for a real photo of the Huawei M750.

It’s… the… Hi-Pod! And it’s a sleek little phone from Chinagrabber. We’re not entirely sure whose brainchild this phone is. It could probably be the same people that have brought us the HiPhone. Though the HiPod is the HiPhone’s cousin by name, the aesthetic between two phone brands are planets apart. The F518 HiPod is your basic phone + MP3 player–an iPod clone Phone. You’ve got your 1-inch LCD display, which definitely will not be ideal for playing episodes American Dad, and then you’ve got your iPod-like clickwheel for playing music (MP3, WMA, WAV, AMR, AWB) and switching FM channels and a numeric keypad on the opposite side of the screen. It supports dual-SIM and there’s a USB and an audio jack and a speaker. The HiPod (WyCall?) is actually a phone of many funny names and will only set you back $85.

The new Motorola Droid has been basking in the spotlight as of late, but we’ve got good news for those of you still drooling over HTC’s monster touchscreen phone called the HD2. HTC has announced that they’ve already begun shipping this Windows Mobile 6.5-powered 4.3-inch touchscreen-equipped 5-megapixel camera phone to Europe and Asia, and barring any delays, it’ll definitely be available in most markets in time for the early holiday shopping rush. This also supports the previous report that it will be available in the UK by November 11th. As far as the US is concerned, they’ll have to wait until the New Year festivities are over before they can get their HTC HD2 as its slated to debut sometime in early 2010. No word on who will be releasing it in the US, but T-Mobile is currently the top candidate to do so.

The cheapest and arguably most sensible PSP clone we’ve written about has a successor. The JXD1000 was a little lacking in a few things like an antenna, which the JXD2000 has. We’re not sure what it’s meant for, though, since the store specs doesn’t mention TV reception. The specs does include an improved FM tuner with automatic search and recording. Besides that it’s pretty much the same player except the promise of longer battery life. The 4.3-inch LCD screen, 8GB flash memory, NES and GBA games support, 720p and 30fps video playback all came with its predecessor. Price has also increased slightly to $110.

If you’re curious what the hoop in the iAudio E2 Mp3 player is for, you can find out buy buying one from JetMall. We really haven’t figured that one out. Lanyard hoops and hoops for keychains don’t have to be so large. A little hole will do. Perhaps COWON means it to be used as the keychain itself. Anyway the 4GB iAudio E2 sells for $65 and is available in various colors and in 2GB and 4GB versions. The E2 supports MP3, WAV, WMA, OGG, FLAC among other music files. Users will also enjoy superior sound effects with JetEffect. The iAudio E2 measures 26.6 x 64.2 x 7.7mm and weighs only 16.6 grams.

This is the end of a very long journey for Apple in China. The Cupertino company had been in talks with Chinese wireless providers for two years over the distribution of iPhone in the biggest mobile market in the world. Apple had a chance to make a deal with China Mobile (the company has been said to serve unlocked iPhones by the hundreds of thousands), the biggest of them all, only to end with a much smaller wireless company in Unicom. Perhaps this fact–that iPhone will operate on a non-dominant wireless provider–and the prohibitive price of each legitimate Unicom iPhone unit (unlocked iPhone is HK are much cheaper) that was responsible for the rather embarrassing first day of iPhone in China. A mere 5,000 units sold. After all of Apple’s Herculean effort to get their touchscreen smartphone to be legally distributed to the Chinese, it’s officially a letdown, the iPhone’s first.

If iPhone conquest and mobile domination isn’t in the agenda of Verizon’s Motorola Droid, I don’t know what is. Droid is without a doubt the best featured Google Android phone to date and the next big thing in touchscreen cellphones.

Droid is dropping November 6. Just as Joshua Topolsky of Engadget showed Jimmy Fallon last night, it’s incredible how thin they have made the Droid even with the slide out QWERTY. For Motorola Droid specs and more information on the Droid, you can check out our tag for Motorola Droid.
